"A THREE-TIME WINNER"
Has Hanlan Lost His Gripe-Phil0s0pl
 ical Training Demanded.

The defeat of "Ned'' Hanlan by Teemerr at Toronto in August indicates the lend of the glory" of the doughty champion.
 He has sustained his record with admirable pluck and success, biit the trei1tendous strain of years of training must certainly Some day find its limit.
 Apropos of this we recall the following in teresting reminiscence of aquatic annals:
 On a fine, bright day in August, 1871, an excited multitude of 15,0OO to 10000 persons lined the shores of the beautiful keneoecassis' near St. John, N. B.. attracted by four. pared race between the famous Paris crew of that city and a picked English crew for 5000 and tEe championship of the world. Wallace Ross, the present renowned oars man, pulled stroke for the Blue Nose crew, and "Jim Renforth champion sculler and swimmer of England and of the world, was stroke in the English she'll
 Excitement was at fever heat.
 But thre6 hiindred yards of the course had been covered when the Englishnien noticed that the rivals were creeping away:
 "Give us d dozen, Jim," said the veteran Harry Kelly, ex-champion of England, who was pulling No. 3 oar.
 II can't boys, I'm done," said Renforth, and with these words he fell forward, an in animate heap in the boat. =,
 ''He has been poisoned by book makers, :"
 Everything that science and skill could suggest for his restoration was tried; but after terrible struggles of agony, the strong nan, the flower of the athletes and pride of his countrymen, p lssed away.
 The stomach was analysed but no sign or trace of poison could be found therein, though general examination showed a very strange condition of the blood and the life giving and health preserving organs caused by years of hnwise training: While the mus. culaf development was perfect the h art and kidneys were badly congested:
 The tyholh SyStarn twas tharpfOra. in inst that state when the most simple departure from ordinary living and exertion was of momentous consequence. His wonderful strength only made his dying paroxysms more dreadful and the fatality more certain.
 Hanlan is now in Australia. Beach, cham pion of that country, is a powerful fellow, who probably understands the liability of athletes to death from over-training, the effect thereof being very serious on the heart, blood and kidneys, as shown by poor Renforths sudden death.
 Within the past three years he has taken particular care of himself, and when train ing, always reinforces the kidneys and pre- vents blood congestion in them and the con sequent illeffect on the heart by using War ner's safe cure, the sportsman's universal favorite and says he lis astonished at the great benefit"
 Harry Wyatt, the celebrated English trainer of athletes, who continues himself to be one of the finest of specimens of manhood and one of the most successful of trainers, writes over his own signature to the English Sporting Life, September 5th, saying: 'I consider Warmers safe cure invaluable for all training purposes and outdoor exercise. I have been in the habit of using it for long time. l am satisfied that it pulled me through when nothing else would, and it is alwaysa three-time winner!"
 Beachs and Wyatt's method of training is sound and should be followed by all.
